Hicksville High School - Hixonian Yearbook (Hicksville, OH)

Text from Pages 1 - 160 of the 1961 volume:

'ftycXOtUCUt ScAooC ?96? 1 oCuvte XLVI 'P ieuuvui Hicksville’s citizens are deeply affected by the institutions of the community — churches, library, hospital, and school are all special keynotes of the character of the people themselves. Through the doorways of this annual we will try to portray the effect of the school on the lives of all of us. We will trace the path of a student, from the time he enters kindergarten until the day he graduates, a mature individual, ready to assume his growing responsibilities in the community. 3 FRONT ROW : Neil Levy, Gordon Coy, Sandy Clark. BACK ROW : Howard Biasing, Diana Katona, Sally Scott, Judi Towne, Tom Ridenour, Betty Yoder, Gloria Biasing, Dallas Dewey, Keith Stuckey. Setuzt ul President Tom Ridenour raps his gavel for an¬ other student council meeting to come to order. The student council is the legislative body of H.H.S. and assists in solving any problems which arise during the school year. Composed of two representatives, a girl and a boy, elected from each class, the student council is the backbone of the student body. In addition to coping with school difficulties, our governing body sponsors the National Honor Society and determines the method of electing the Homecoming Court and Cheerleaders; also its members serve as guides for visitors to our school. Under the superior guidance of our principal, Mr. Ringer, and the outstanding leadership of its offi¬ cers, President, Tom Ridenour; Vice-President, Judy Towne; and Secretary, Sally Scott; the stu¬ dent council has had an active and beneficial year. S ftente tced “Direct Ocvi School Because the school board is the policy-making body of Hicksville High School, the members must spend many evenings discussing and solving the problems of our school system. Under the leader¬ ship of President Claron Laub, they have the re¬ sponsibility of setting up a balanced budget and interviewing and hiring the best-qualified teachers they can find. This year the school board has again authorized Superintendent Norman Jones to offer summer courses for students who wish to study subjects they were not able to schedule during the school year. The board has also discussed adding French to the curriculum within the near future in their endeavor to provide a sound education for the youth of Hicksville.

Bus Drivers Kenneth Countryman, Ralph Morhart, Ralph Smith, Dwight Burlin game, William Camp, Charles Meyer. S. Little, H. Smith, and C. Haller, a small lout efficient part of our office staff. Our mainstay, Mrs. Lura Thiel, fulfills one of her numerous duties as a school secretary, that of paying the various bills contracted by the ad¬ ministration. Pen4o«t tel . . . Sorting mail and checking attendance are only two of the roles of our secretaries, J. Anderson, J. Biasing, M. Wirick, B. Arnold, and M. Nolte. 8 . . . the buds are on the tree The birds are back once more, And with their songs they call to me To open wide my door: . . . the leaves begin to show The grass is green again, And on the breeze sweet odors blow From rvild flowers in the glen: —FRANK SHERMAN Mrs. Audra Batchelor explains the classification of sentences while C. Hostet¬ ler, R. Hofmeister, and L. Haase try to apply the explanation to their work. Oun, Stefifiuty Sto te Hicksville High School offers four years of English and one year of speech. Three credits in English are required for graduation. The English Department provides a sound basis in grammar, literature, and public speak¬ ing for all students. The speech class participated in all holiday assemblies and frequently introduced guest speakers. Mrs. Iva Scheuring takes notes while L. Agler delivers her speech and T. Sweeney runs the tape recorder. Mrs. Ruth Wood directs the many activities of librarians M. Handy, N. Blalock, S. Rice, R. Camp, S. McGrew, P. Slattery, L. Brown, J. Pepple, D. Battershell, R. Mock, and J. Bilger. 10 t 'KttoutCectye C. Beverly demonstrates air resistance in general science class while D. Miller tests the strength of S. Tomacek. Mr. Derrill Murphy points out the different parts of a flower to biology students D. Beals and N. Bla¬ lock. Hicksville High School offers four years of science, with one unit required for gradu¬ ation. The department has special equipment to meet the needs of the various classes. An annual Science Fair is held each spring with prizes awarded in each division. L. Smith, B. Laub, and J. Hilbert discuss the properties of various prisms, one of the many topics in physics. “If everything else fails, try following directions,” is Mr. Phil Wahl’s reminder to chemistry students G. Meek, R. Gordon, and L. Griffith while they attempt one of the numerous experiments. Vocatco tal Mr. Fred Hilbert coaches J. Massie, L. Biasing, and L. Mullet in the intricacies of adding machines in bookkeeping class. J. Towne takes an accuracy five-minute timing in Typing II. Mrs. Mary Culler helps L. Bassett and C. Lengacher with their secretarial office practice in Shorthand II. Two years of typing, which includes filing and office practice, two years of stenogra¬ phy, which includes training on business machines and a secretarial office practice course, and one year each of bookkeeping and general business comprise the commer¬ cial curriculum. All courses are elective. The commercial department attempts to give training to students so that they may accept responsible jobs after graduation. L. Hitzeman, C. Hart, and C. Headley are intrigued by the contents found in their general business texts. ScUccatcoti J. Ringer wonders if this will produce poise as Mrs. Rosemary McKeen uses E. Volkert for her model in our newly acquired health class. S. Grover and P. Ish shorten N. Howard’s skirt under the supervision of Mrs. Patricia Miller, their home economics teacher. Mr. James Drimel cautions L. Gessner to watch his fingers as he shows F. Kuhn and B. Ringen- berg how to cut plywood. T. Betts attempts to draw a perfect circle with a compass. Although Mr. John Fast encourages him, other Algebra I students, V. Bauer and B. Brannon, seem a bit dubious as to the outcome. One-room school mathematics, involv¬ ing addition, subtraction, and other “ciphering” met the needs of the simple life. Now algebra and geometry are integral parts of the fast-paced world of today. N. Blalock, B. Cook, and J. Kemerer are rather doubtful that X does equal Y, but Mr. Roger Farlee is used to such questioning in his plane geometry classes. S. Laub, M. Doeden, K. Jones, and Mrs. Wood. Latin forms a basis for several other languages. Many of our own words are taken from the Latin language. Mrs. Ruth Wood shows three of her first year Latin students a few of the similarities between ancient Rome and modern America in the scrapbooks of a former class. 14 We “Ptay L. Snyder, C. Lengacher, and D. Wright blend their voices under the direction of chorus director Mr. Keith Biler, while Rickie Pierman accompanies them at the piano. “We . , . Mr. Norris Simpson counsels K. Calvin and K. Cook regarding their aptitude for various occupations. The guidance staff has personal conferences with all juniors and seniors and is available to all students for advice or help in plan¬ ning courses. We Study . . . From the look on the faces of M. Beaverson and J. Bat- tershell, it appears that F. Kuhn has thought up another brilliant question for the per¬ sonal problems class. M. Wirick and M. Nolte discuss the pros and cons of the bond issue, one of many local, national, and inter¬ national issues covered in the senior government class. 0p’iQ n t e Education of students in all phases of social relations is the goal of the social studies de¬ partment. Two units are required for gradu¬ ation. All classes discuss current topics as well as the regular text. The government classes also conducted a school election in November. S. Tustison points out the growth of our young nation while K. Cook, Mr. Leonard G. Myers, and K. Brush follow her illustration. Mr. Howard Schneider demonstrates the incli¬ nation of the earth to K. Calvin, B. Beverly, and R. Carpenter. 16 fodcUf4 wuzdcuzt i . . . fOMUWlOM 4 (£ittfe t4 V CLASS OFFICERS: Helen Smith, secretary; Dennis Stuckey, vice-president; Sandra Byroade, treasurer; Ella Jane Volkert, president.

All students must maintain a 3.5 average to be eligible and to remain in the society. The three other essential requirements are Service, Character, and Leadership. Those students meeting these demands are selected in secret by the school faculty and are then initiated into the organization dur¬ ing the impressive tapping ceremony which is witnessed by the entire high school. The sophomores and juniors chosen are considered probationary members, the only permanent members being the seniors. This year the society was pleased to add three new members to its ranks during the tapping ceremony held in April. The senior members received their pins during this assembly. Later in the month the group held a lovely banquet at Hall’s East End Restaurant in Fort Wayne, Indiana. The Reverend Mr. Roy Schutz delivered the after-dinner talk which was thoroughly enjoyed by the members and faculty sponsors, Mr. and Mrs. Wood and Mr. and Mrs. Ringer. The tension finally breaks as J. Ringer is tapped by B. Longsworth as a probationary member to the National Honor Society. 54 STANDING: J. Biasing, H. Smith, J. West. M. Brush. R. Hofmeister, L.

'tyotvi i t c u4ine id Ranking high as one of the outstanding organi¬ zations at H.H.S., Hicksville’s chapter of Future Business Leaders of America has completed an¬ other successful and beneficial year. Last summer five of the girls, Mrs. Culler, and Mrs. Smith attended the National Convention held in Chicago. Our own Ann Smith, Vice-Presi¬ dent of the Central Region, presided during sev¬ eral of the sessions, and Sue Stemen served as one of the two delegates for the State of Ohio. Early in the fall the annual candy campaign was begun to raise funds to attend the State Con¬ vention held in Toledo. Hicksville was well rep¬ resented as 35 members attended and played a leading role throughout the convention. Janice Peters, first vice-president, was active during the meetings and Linda Hilbert was selected as one of the two State Delegates to the National Convention. The chapter is to be commended also for its awards of first in mileage, second in at¬ tendance, third in spelling, and third in outstand¬ ing chapter in the State of Ohio. The two new trophies are a significant addition to our trophy case. Hicksville’s chapter was also well represented at the Northwest District Meeting at Bowling o o Green in February. The excellent programs provided throughout the year cultivated much enthusiasm and through the efforts and outstanding leadership of these energetic girls and their vibrant advisor, Mrs. Cul¬ ler, the F.B.L.A. has served as a building block for the future. Linda Hilbert delivers her acceptance speech at State Convention as Carolyn Avery, president, and Janice Peters, first vice-president, listen attentively. 07 wtonn Mv £cCuc to'i J. Hofner, D.

Although this is only the second year that the Future Teachers of America has been organized, its energetic members and ambi¬ tious advisor, Mrs. Wood, have done much to make F.T.A. another active and outstand¬ ing club at Hicksville High School. As a result of attending the F.T.A. State Convention in Columbus, the chapter has es¬ tablished a merit system and has purchased a club banner. Through observations taken at the grade school, the various panel discussions, and other interesting program activities, the F.T.A. has given its members the opportunity to explore the advantages of teaching and has prepared others for college and their future vocations. 56 Janet Bilger, vice-president, Beth Laub, president, and Mrs. Ruth Wood, advisor, display the new chap¬ ter banner. wm BACK ROW : S.

With the help of the Yell Club and the Pep Band, the Booster Club members have done remarkably well this year in giving spark and spirit to the basketball and football teams. Activities for the year included a hayride early in the fall, selling beanies, and sponsoring the dances after the ball games. And then, explains Mr. Schneider, advisor, to the Booster Club officers, J. Biasing, vice-president; P. Slattery, president; R. Pierman, secretary- treasurer; M. Wirick, sergeant-at-arms.

Some of our activities to obtain this goal were the Home Safety Program, carol singing at Christmas, giving a style show for the mothers of our club, and sending some of the proceeds of our record hop to Lebanon. Also our club is working diligently to be able to receive the Award of Merit at the State Convention. Under the capable leadership of our advisor, Mrs. Miller, and with the co¬ operation of our officers and the twenty- one members, we have had a very suc¬ cessful year. “M-m-m good!” Mrs. Pat Miller shows Bonnie Buchin, president, and Lucille Biasing some clever tips in preparing soups. 59 Sfrcnct The Yell Club did a tremendous job in boosting the Aces to victory this year. The members attended Yell Club practices to learn all the new cheers, and wore predomi¬ nately red and white costumes with red and white victory poppies to the games. Their fine sportsmanship and their eager willingness to back our team was of great importance to the players and coaches. Cer¬ tainly Hicksville’s cheering section was one of the outstanding in the area; this was due largely to the wide-spread influence of our supporting asset, the Yell Club.

Music fills the air as the high school chorus, under the expert direction of Mr. Keith Biler, de¬ livers another of its inspirational messages. Through the many long and hard rehearsals the chorus has shown outstanding improvement this year. The students have sincerely found enjoy¬ ment in the experience of working together and developing their talents. Prior to the Christmas vacation, the chorus presented a lovely holiday concert which was well received by the public. Included in the fine pro¬ gram were several festive carols depicting various countries around the globe. In addition to the musical selections sung by the chorus, the respon¬ sive audience was given the opportunity to partici¬ pate; they enthusiastically accompanied the group by harmonizing to some of the familiar and loved Christmas carols. To conclude their performance, the chorus presented an unusual arrangement typi¬ fying dynamic stereophonic sound. The chorus also appeared at the Christmas as¬ sembly held for the student body along with the Jr. High Chorus and the speech class. A boys’ quartette, comprised of Pat Slattery, Jim Weider, Keith Jones, and Steve Middleton plus Jim Weider, who also carried a tenor solo, repre¬ sented Hicksville at the Solo and Ensemble Contest held at Bowling Green State University. The en¬ tire group then attended District Band and Chorus Contest which was also held at Bowling Green. The chorus is to be commended for its fine per¬ formance. Truly this year has been a very active and suc¬ cessful one for all involved. 67 Ou “Tftu cc ‘Defi t “PnoudCcf “p'%e4eKt BACK ROW : T. Hannah, M. Lenhart, C. Hostetler, J. Peters, V. Rex, S. Finzer.

This group has given exceptional performances during the year, participating in the Christmas and Thanksgiving Concerts presented for the high school. Early in the spring the boys and girls began working earnestly to prepare the Tom Sawyer Op¬ eretta, which they presented in April. The operetta was well received by the public and the students enjoyed the experience of learn¬ ing to work together as a group. Miss Coon has been a superb director throughout the year, training these young voices toward fu¬ ture excellence in the senior high chorus. ■ . , , s4cttoctce . , . 7oiftonKMa ‘7?te K Ue4 (2o te Out t e (?lo4et I don’t know how, but that’s what happened.

Tom Ridenour has been a member of the National Honor Society since 1959, played varsity football, basketball, and baseball, besides having parts in both the junior and senior class plays. He went to Bowling Green with the scholarship team four years, taking tests in algebra, biology, chemistry, and bookkeep¬ ing. When Tom took the National Merit Scholarship Test as a jun¬ ior, he ranked in the top three per cent of the nation. With all of these honors, plus many more, Tom will surely be a top credit to his class and “make the grade” at West Point. Kenny Brush gained many honors this year after receiving an excel¬ lent with his chemistry project at the Hicksville Science Fair. Defiance rated him a superior; the Archbold District Science Fair netted him a first place gold medal in chem¬ istry, recognition from the Air Force, a slide rule from the Farmers and Merchants State Bank of Archbold, a book of physics and chemistry from the Cleveland Chem¬ ical Rubber Company, and the second alternate award for the Navy Sci¬ ence Cruise. To top his honors he received an ex¬ cellent when he traveled to Cincinnati for the State Science Fair. 90 tyieat s4t£tete TRefiieAetittety j i ' Bob Longsworth participated in football and basketball for four years and in track for two, earn¬ ing varsity letters in each. Our mighty fullback, with three var¬ sity letters in football, was twice selected for the Northwest Buck¬ eye All-League team. During his senior year, Bob was co-captain of the gridiron Aces. Bob threw the discus in track and both years placed in the district meet, qual¬ ifying for state competition. This past year he set a new school record in discus of 132’ 1”. Ray Hinsch proved himself to be an all-around athlete as he played in all four school sports — basketball, football, track and baseball — and won varsity letters in all of them. Ray was given an honorable mention on the Northwest Buckeye All-League team during his senior year. He also set a new school record of 19’ 9” in the broad jump and was among the top scoring lead¬ ers in Northwestern Ohio in basketball. I ™” ' - LHU feii- -Vi’-I Tom Ridenour earned three var¬ sity letters in baseball and football and two in basketball. A slippery halfback, Tom was chosen for the Northwest Buckeye All-League team two years and was among the top scorers in Northwestern Ohio in foot¬ ball in his junior year. He served as co-captain of the football team his senior year. s4t6£ete V t e (96f . mm It has been the custom at Hicksville High School to select a senior boy as the outstanding athlete of the year. His name is then placed on a plaque in the trophy case across from the school office. Only once since this tradition was instituted had there been more than one boy chosen as representative of that year. In 1959 both Clint Wirick and Bill Hirzel were selected. But this year, 1961, for the first time in the school’s history, three seniors, Bob Longsworth, Ray Hinsch, and Tom Ridenour, were given the high honor. Each has proven himself on the athletic field all during his high school career j and certainly merits the title “athlete of the year.” Past Athletes of the Year 1953 — Paul Slattery 1954 — Ralph Timbrook 1955 — Bud Amaden 1956 — Merle Ballard 1957 — Lynn Cleland 1958 — George Nolte 1959 — Bill Hirzel Clint ,Wirick 1960 — Jim Cromwell 91 Senior Tim Sweeney, Hicksville’s weatherman, was awarded four ribbons for his telethermoscope and telepsychronescope. He received a first in Hicksville, a fourth in Archbold, and a Superior at both Defiance and Cincinnati. Ruth Sweeney, a sophomore, took her blue ribbon yeast project to the Science Fairs at Defiance and Cincinnati. There she was awarded Superior and Ex¬ cellent ratings, respectively. DeeAnn Snyder has won both the school and county cherry pie baking contests for the past two years. Senior Marilyn Reaverson won the Betty Crocker Home¬ making Award this year. The Junior High Spelling Bee was won by Judy Peters. 92 Each year the music department awards the John Philip Sousa Band Award to its outstand¬ ing music student. This year the plaque was won by Ella Jane Volkert, accompanist, alto, and trombonist. Her brother, Jim, won the award in 1959.

Larry Smith, with an A point average of 11.0 for four years, is the Valedictorian of the class of 1961. Elected to the National Honor Society as a sophomore, Larry represented H.H.S. on scholarship teams in Latin, geometry, history, and physics. In the past four years, Larry has played varsity football, track, and baseball, was co-editor of both the school paper and the yearbook and a member of the band. He also had the male lead in both the junior and senior plays. Larry is enrolled at Ohio University where he plans to specialize in the study of physics. Beth Laub, the Salutatorian for 1961, has a 10.68 point average. Beth, a member of the National Honor Society for three years, has represented H.H.S. on the scholarship team in English for foui years.

Seine 02 V o tt t e Stony The Hicksville Aces played their toughest season in history, and even though they did not win a game, they displayed the courage and determina¬ tion of an undefeated team. Although not leaders record-wise, they were certainly leaders in sports¬ manship, both on and off the field. After the 1960 season had concluded, several of the Senior Aces won honors for their ability and rugged playing. Rick Mock was named 2nd Team Defensive End of the Class “A” All-Ohio Team; and Tom Ridenour, Bob Longsworth, and Jim Weider were honored by being selected for the Northwestern Buckeye All-League Team. Larry Smith and Ray Hinsch received honorable mention. We feel that the success of the 1960 football squad has not yet been determined, but will be when the fine young men who participated take their places as mature young men in society. i I960 FOOTBALL SCHEDULE We They Bishop Luers _ _ 0 42 Montpelier _ _ 0 44 Ed on _ _ 32 34 Paulding _ _ 8 32 Ada _ - . _ 0 48 Delphos St. John _ 12 34 Leipsic _ _ 0 22 Payne _ _ 18 26 Ott .Hak Assistant Coach: Phil Wahl Tom Ridenour (25) futilely tries to rid himself of a determined Edon tackier as he looks im¬ ploringly downfield for help.

A cheerleading squad should be the backbone of school spirit and our corps of six pretty misses was more than equal to the task as they spent long hours diligently working up new rou¬ tines, painting posters and signs, holding pep rallies and Yell Club which increased the school spirit 100 per cent. Precision and excellence were trademarks of the girls’ cheers, a fact which is strongly supported by the Blue Ribbon acquired by the squad at Cheerleading Camp this summer for their outstanding execution of cheers.

Coach Simpson did a wonderful job with the players as there were only two returning starters. With only two weeks of practice before their first game, the Aces started slow and barely eked out a 41-39 overtime win over North Central. But the Aces picked up speed and garnered five more wins over Hilltop, Stryker, Edgerton, Blue Creek, and Grover Hill before they were upset by Antwerp, 51-49, in the Holiday Tournament at Blue Creek. Revenge was sweet as the Aces traveled to An¬ twerp for a return match. After trailing by 16 points at halftime, the Aces came roaring back and, using a very effective press, won handily 65-60. Inspired by this victory, the Aces put together a string of six straight wins before they met the Ayersville Pilots on Hicksville’s floor. The game started out close, but as the minutes went by, Ayersville drew steadily ahead. When the final gun sounded, the Aces were on the short end of a 71-50 score. The Aces then invaded Oakwood and Edgerton where they met defeat on both occasions. The Aces discovered the victory trail again, though, as they recorded an easy triumph over the Paulding Panthers, a game in which, for the first time in the Aces’ history, all twelve members of the team made the scoring column. In the last game of the regular season, the Aces again tasted defeat as they were beaten 54-38 by an aroused Stryker quintet that the Aces had beaten handily earlier in the season. The regular season over, all eyes turned to the County Tournament, the winner of which would continue on to the Sectional. Having drawn Ayers¬ ville for the first round, the boys went into the game determined to win the hard ones first. But the Aces could not contend with the Pilots’ fast- break and hot shooting and went down to a 74-42 defeat. The Aces thus ended with a commendable 12-6 season record, the best in three years. 106 Oan, LARRY MULLET Guard RAY HINSCH Guard BOB LONGSWORTH Forward TOM RIDENOUR Forward-Guard PAT SLATTERY Forward-Guard RA SCHOOLEY Forward-Guard DENNIS HAMMOND Guard V Mike Simpson leads the Aces’ flying entrance. 108 mam Tom Ridenour seems to be doing a “bang up” job.

In the District meet the Aces garnered four points. Bob Longs¬ worth placed second in the discus and thus quali¬ fied for the state meet. Bob failed to place in the state meet, but praise should be given to him and the entire track team for a fine season.
